I can understand his agreeing to run in Illinois. It was not something he sought. The party went to him after at least 3 other potential candidates turned down the chance, and I think he just looked at as a way to do something for the party. I don't think he will win and I do not believe that he thinks he will win. That makes it all the more confounding for him to pull a Kerry-like flip flop on the issue of reparations. Very very disappointing.

I thought I'd enjoy the dialogue w/he & Obama, but haven't even gotten myself to follow it. On your post on homosexuality... I definitely agree w/your post. People are responsible for choices and there doesn't seem to be a cause for homosexuality from either a theological or naturalistic basis. Therefore, it comes down to choice.
